Objectives (course unit)

Students are able to:
- calculate conductive energy through objects
- calculate convective energy in tubular flows
- calculate simplified radiative enegy
- calculate energy sums in heat transfer
- calculate pressure drop in tubular flows
- formulate and solve energy balance equations

Content (course unit)

Conduction, convection, radiation, combined heat transfer, pressure drop, and energy balance equations. Examples of equipments include steam power plant, gas trubine power plant, engines, pumps and blowers.

Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1-2) (course unit)

The student is able to identify the main principles, basic concepts and phenomena of energy production and use. The student is motivated enough to take responsibility for his/her own performance, know how to act in the group and give and receive feedback.

Assessment criteria, good (3-4) (course unit)

Students are familiar with the main principles, basic concepts and phenomena of energy production and use, and are able to justify and apply their learning. Students are clearly motivated, take responsibility for their own and team performance and are able to constructively give and receive feedback.

Assessment criteria, excellent (5) (course unit)

The student knows and understands widely the main principles, basic concepts and phenomena of energy production and use. The student is able not only to justify and apply his / her learning, but also to critically evaluate his / her own solutions. Students are highly motivated, committed to taking responsibility for their own and group performance, and are able to systematically use feedback as a tool for professional growth.
